Kansas City Board Tries to Mix Races in Schools
Dr. C L Plucker testified at a Kansas Commission on Civil Rights hearing that the Kansas City Kansas Board of Education seeks to place teachers in schools with different race composition but faces shortages of qualified Negro applicants. He said qualification, not race, guides assignments and transfers, and no teacher is forced to move. Bats use echoes from ultrasonic cries to guide themselves, with some fishing bats increasing sound repetition before dipping to water.
